Black Cat Morpheus speaker cable
« on: September 21, 2011, 06:27:46 PM »
I just talked to Chris Somovigo and ordered a 2 meter shotgun pair of the soon to be released Morpheus speaker cable.i heard a single pair in the Signal Collection room at the 2011 Capitol Audiofest and liked them so now i want to check them out in my system  :D

Chris is a great guy who knows what he's doing.  Can't wait to hear how you like the Morpheus.   I've been extremely happy with his Veloce digital IC.

i just hooked them up this morning and i am running them with a set of 4 homemade 12 gauge awg stranded copper bi-wire jumpers with crimped gold spades and they are sounding really nice right out of the box.Chris says they will improve after 200 hours or so.

I have the current version of the Morpheus IC and speaker cables with the Aeron teflon foamed insulation and the Silverstar 75 digital cable. all of these easily compete with much more expensive cables

Ha, lately it's lack of green juice making me less hilarious than usual.  I should've said, "Why compare them to Morrow, when you could compare them to Day?" NOW we're talkin'! haha

I compared the Morpheus speaker cables to the Morrow SP3 speaker cables and the Morpheus IC to the Morrow MA3 IC.in my opinion the Morrow's were very good cables and the Morpheus were much better all around than the Morrow's  :thumb:

Good one.

I had the newer Morpheus speaker cables in my system for a bit. It didn't work out for me. To me they sounded very lean and extended even after 240+ hours of burn in. It could also be they were really revealing the sound of my system. I'm glad though the Morepheus line of cables are working out for others though. I spoke to Chris Sommavigo and he was cool about things. I'd definitely buy from him again.

there is no one size fits all.system synergy and personal preference dictates what works best in your rig.Chris has a 60 day money back return policy which is plenty of time to figure out if you like them or not in your system   :thumb:
